Generator Neutral Grounding Practices

I often receive queries on neutral grounding practices for large utility-scale generators (typically 100 MW to 800 MW) as well as MV generators used in industrial plants (typically 2 MW to 20 MW). In the attached article, I have explained the basic concepts of generator neutral grounding with the objective of demystifying the subject. The intent is to help readers navigate the topic without being overwhelmed by jargon, and to enable them to critically assess the practical relevance of recommendations they may encounter. I trust this article will address some of the common doubts and provide clarity on this topic.    click here to open file
